Bundle Up
This function will upload a selection of programs or an entire Bank to
the computer hard drive, and include all the pianos and/or samples
that these programs use in a Program Bundle file .
The default source will be the currently selected Program(s) or the ac-
tive bank, but you can choose another bank with the drop down menu .
Click on the Upload button to enter the name of the Bundle and to
select the destination on the hard drive
.
The Program Bundle file that is
created on the hard drive will have the extension .np2pb .
Bundle Down
This function will download a Bundle with programs, pianos and
samples from the computer hard drive to the Nord Piano 2 HP . You
have a choice if you want the Bundle to be appended to the existing
programs in the bank in focus or if the Bundle should replace the
contents in an entire bank of your choice .
Programs in a Program Bundle will be downloaded to the locations
where they came from if the Replace option is selected .
Backup
This will make a backup of all the pianos, samples, programs, Live
programs and the menu settings in the Nord Piano 2 HP . The file that is
created on the hard drive will have the extension .np2b . Backing up the
entire memory content in this manner will take some time, depending
on the sizes of the pianos and samples installed .
Backing up from the Nord Sound Manager is done in an incre-
mental manner. Unless you change the name or the location of
the backup file, only the pianos and/or programs that have been
changed since the previous backup will be saved.
The Nord Sound Manager will suggest a location for the backup the
first time this function is selected (in My Documents/Nord Sound
Manager files/) . If you’d rather save the backup file elsewhere, use the
browser to pick another destination .
Restore
To restore a previously saved backup file to the Nord Piano 2 HP, select
this option and browse to a backup file on the hard drive (file extension
.np2b) and click Open .
E
The restore process will begin after you have clicked Open and
confirmed your intentions in the dialogue. All the content that isn’t
in the backup file in a connected Nord Piano 2 HP will then be
irrevocably replaced by the content in the backup file.
